A student-journey in smart sensing:
From question to proof-of-concept, focused on safety, simplicity, and everyday usability.
This project explores a reusable, clip-on sensing concept that aims to work with common absorbent garments—no special disposables required. Instead of relying on traditional electrical or optical methods, this research looks at alternative ways to detect and estimate wetness while keeping cost, comfort, and low power in mind.
The project began by speaking with families and care professionals to understand real needs. From there, prior work was reviewed and a series of prototypes were developed, learning through bench tests and iteration. The current unit is wired for simplicity; it is being used to validate basic ideas before moving toward a compact, low-power wireless design.
This is a student-founded project—learning by building and sharing, while protecting what
matters.
The project warmly welcome students, mentors, and collaborators to join this journey!
